Standalone PDF file system not working correctly

I have built a website http://greatayton.wikidot.com/ where one PDF Menu file calls up lots of other PDF files.
I now want to use the same menu system to call PDF files on a PC hard disk with the Internet turned off.
I used hyperlinks to link from the PDF Meny to the PDF files.
This works but first calls up Internet Explorer then displays the actual file which makes the operation slow and unweildy.
How do I just get the hyperlinks to call up the PDF files?
Thanks
Mike

PDF FILE WILL NOT WORK OR OPEN ADOBE READER NOT WORKING CORRECTLY.

PDF FILE WILL NOT OPEN IN A FEW APPLICATIONS AS THEY DID BEFORE. IF I CAN'T VIEW THEM I CAN'T PRINT THEM.

Hi
Why wouldn't an Apple file D/L into an Apple browser?
Likely due there being a non-Apple plugin trying to handle it & failing.
Look in Home/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ and HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ for any plugins with 'pdf' in the name.
Remove any you find - either trash or take to the desktop, restart any browsers, then try a pdf.

Pdf files are not attaching correctly to emails. I have tried the reset firefox option but this has not worked.

I use comcast for my email. I have attached scanned doc in pdf many times successfully. Now attachments will not display, when I check the attachment all I get is a blank page with the note the pdf docs may not display correctly

Firefox 19 changed your default viewer for PDFs to the built-in viewer. Maybe it can't handle the scan due to size or other reasons?
To change your PDF handler to the Adobe Acrobat plugin or an external application, you can update one of your application preferences. There is now a support article on this: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].
Any luck?

DMS Connector to Portal Issue PDF files does not work

I have a general issue regarding PDF files from DMS, these files are all defect when opened through the portal (works fine through backend access), but other document types works fine (like .doc;.ppt, *.xsl etc..).
It is possible to download the file to your local pc, but still the same error occurs.
When Adobe Reader opens a info box shows The file is damaged and could not be repaired.
I have tried to update Acrobat Reader without any luck.
Any ideas on how to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance

I will never understand why but in the end I rebuilt my 32 bit dell laptop from scratch and the pdf files can now be searched.
I cannot search them on a mapped drive as I was able to with Windows XP because now they must be indexed and windows 7 will seems not to allow a mapped location to be indexed which must be done to make the pdf files searchable so I have had to move the files to the local drive.
My Windows 7 64 bit systems can search the mapped drives just fine without needing to be indexed. Again I will never understand why this works and the 32 bit machine does not.

Windows 7 32 bit search of PDF files does not work

I have installed Windows 7 on a 32 bit Dell Laptop and I can no longer search the content of my PDF files using Microsoft's search in Windows Explorer which I need to do. I’ve tried following the advice listed on several sites on line and nothing seems to work. My 64bit processor required a download of Adobe PDF iFilter 9 for 64-bit platforms and those systems work fine. All the write-ups suggest that Reader XI for 32 bit Windows 7 has the filter built in and Microsoft indexing indicates it is there but I still can't search for words in a PDF like I could using Windows XP.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for any help.

Standalone Gateway in MSCS not working correctly

Dear Experts,
I have installed a standalone gateway according to note 657999 in a BW cluster system. I already installed 2 standalone gateways in 2 other systems and they are working fine. I am checking this using sm49 and running a zdir external program in each node.
Although the services were installed and started correctly, as well as the GW cluster resource, external programs still run only in one node and fail when run from the other node.
Any thoughts will be pointly appreciated. Thank you.

Link in pdf-file does not work on Ipad

With my site www.bartkuijer.nl I offer visitors the free possibility to see (and download) sheetmusic, from music written by me. These are pdf-files. But they can not only SEE the sheetmusic; the music on that pdf-files can also be PLAYED. That's done bij clicking on a link in that pdf-file to a mp3-file of the music on my site.
This works fine on a pc. When I try this on the Ipad of my wife it DOES NOT WORK!
So my question is: how come? And what to do to make this work also fine on an Ipad.
This is important for me, because I want this sheetmusic to place as Ipad-apps for free.

It works!
But not with a pdf-file. The Ipad does not recognize links in a pdf-file.
Te solution is found by making a htm-file with emdedding a quicktime-player and images of the music. This is my first Ipad product. On a pc the player starts immediately; on the Ipad it has to be started.
Now I have to work on a solution to change this to an app

Bursting a PDF Template is not working correctly

We are using a PDF template for an export document and we are bursting the request so that we can send the output to multiple destinations.
This all works correctly until we hit a document that results in multiple pages. This results in the generated output to be a complete mess. Text appearing all over the page.
If I take the same XML and run it through the template in Template viewer, everything works as expected. The text is all where it is supposed to be. So this appears to be an issue with how the XML and template are bursted.
Anyone have any ideas?
EDIT: I should mention that we're on XML Publisher v 5.6.3

Lightroom 2.0: Save Metadata to File is not working correctly!

Hi,
I have this JPG file with no EXIF data whatsoever but I know it's capture time so I went to "Metadata » Edit Capture Time" and changed the capture time. On Lightroom in the Library module, I can see the capture time but then I save the metadata with "Metadata » Save Metadata to File". However, when I check the file on Windows Explorer, the capture time (or date taken as named by Windows) is not specified at all.
Why isn't the "Save Metadata do File" working correctly?

> Ok, this problem was working on only a specific file, so I just re-exported the file and it's all good.
Exporting to a JPEG and writing metadata to the original JPEG is two different things.
My experience was that when saving xmp metadata, LR does not create an EXIF section in a file where it was initially missing (And that's a common scenario with scanned film). The date and time information is only stored in the embedded xmp, of which Windows Explorer does not know a thing.
When exporting your original to a JPEG, that's a completely different thing. You create a new file, rather than modifying your original. SO, Lightroom will create a brand new valid jpeg with a valid exif section and everything.

Inspire 5.1 5700 Digital system not working correctly

I have a Inspire 5.1 5700 Digital speaker system that has some issue's.
The front speakers are all that is working with center channel low volume , the Sub and Rear speakers are not working according to set-up in software , But Sub is working in games and with Music.
I had been using an MSI P67/ G43 MB onboard sound. Today I gave up and purchased a new sound card, an Audigy Rx. Installed the drivers, did the update for drivers. I was working w/ speaker set up and mic setup and I still have the same problem.
I am thinking there has been a change in the drivers or windows 7, that the controller does not recognize. I have checked all speakers and the are working.
I also am using the Optical output to the controller.

Ok , I changed it to SPDIF and it only shows 2 channel @ Hz. in the test that pops up, only 2 front speakers are activated. In Arma 3 , it seems to have 5.1 sound again now.
I used to be able to set up and test the speakers and set the front / rear balance and fade thru the software. I am un able to do that an again, the source is not Optical but SPDIF.
So, what am I doing wrong here ??
and thank you for the quick response and help O))
Hi RonReagan,
SPDIF (Sony Philips Digital Interconnect Format) basically has 2 types of connection: Optical and Coaxial. In this case, you are using an Optical connection. Hence, it is known as SPDIF Optical.
It is correct that you received 2 audio channels during speaker test via an optical connection. An alternative way is to initiate the test through the Windows audio endpoint for SPDIF Out (optical Out).
At the Sound of the Windows Control Panel, configure SPDIF Out as the default device. Click on the Properties. At the Supported Formats tab, check the box for DTS Audio or Dolby Digital. Click on the Test button to initiate the speaker test. You should able to test for the rear speakers.
Cheers,

Email PDF from IE not working correctly

We use software that exports a Crystal Report to a PDF file and displays it in Internet Explorer (IE9). From the Reader toolbar, you can email the PDF as an attachment. Ever since upgrading to verion 11, the file is attached to the email with the name of the web page instead of the PDF extension (.aspx instead of .pdf). I copied the attachment to the Desktop and renamed it to a .pdf and it does open just fine. The problem is that I should not have to do that. Plus, users are having a hard time with it. How can I fix this issue?

This is a known issue in Acrobat11, will be fixed in dot release.

Request forward with a PDF file is not working in 8.1 SP2?

          Hi,
          I have a servlet that forwards the request to a pdf file. The code works fine
          in WL61. However when I ran the servlet in WL8.1SP2, all I get is a blank page.
          However, instead of PDF I forward the request to a text file, it works fine in
          both weblogic versions.
          Any help willbe greatly appreciated. Code sample below.
          Thanx
          String file_path = my_path + "\\test.pdf";
          RequestDispatcher d = req.getRequestDispatcher(file_path);
          d.forward(req, resp);


I tried the simple thing on 8.1sp3 and it works..
          public void service(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOException{
          req.getRequestDispatcher("/AntIdea.pdf").forward(req, res);
          My WAR looks like the following
          WEB-INF
          WEB-INF/web.xml
          WEB-INF/classes/ForwardServlet.java
          AntIdea.pdf

Database file views not working correctly

I have recently set up an Access database on my local
coldfusion server. When I go to the application panel and go to the
'databases' tab, I can see a list of my databases just fine. The
problem is that, when I open the individual tables of a database
I've created, the files show up as the path to the file and not the
file name as it normally should. For example, I'm working through a
lynda.com tutorial and have build a database called 'teacloud'.
When I open the teacloud tables in Dreamweaver, they should show
the individual names of the tables, like the following:
Products
ProductTypes
Reviews
Users
UserTypes
Instead, I get the following:
C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\database\teacloud.Products
C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\database\teacloud.ProductTypes
C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\database\teacloud.Reviews
C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\database\teacloud.Users
C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\database\teacloud.UserTypes
How do I get rid of the file path structure to where
Dreamweaver simply shows the Table name only? This is very
annoying, as it prevents me from being able to see the individual
table names in many of the functions within Dreamweaver.

The problem was introduced during the CF 7.01 update. I
understand that the
7.02 update fixes the issue.

PDF file does not export correctly - words corrupt & images in half

I just exported a PDF to Word doc - words corrupt and images in half
How do I get file or document right to work with it?

We have this problem as well. Unfortunately after years of only supporting IE and finally rewriting our site to be standards compliant we are going to have to force users back to IE because of this issue. It's not feasible for us to walk users through changing the default viewer. The default should stay Adobe (if installed) until a more robust native version is available. I understand you want to promote free and open tools but if they don't work, it's just not good enough.

Default pdf Viewer does not work correctly

On this pdf, page 1 will not display, but displays fine in IE and Chrome. If you download the pdf, it displays just fine. So the issue is definitely FireFox, here is the url:
http://www.powergatellc.com/pdfs/SNP-G12.pdf
On this pdf, the Firefox has added grey boxes around the images. These boxes do not appear in IE or Chrome or when you download the file, here is the url:
http://www.powergatellc.com/pdfs/SNP-G20.pdf
Problems these are all throughout my client's website with a library of over 700 pdfs. This is causing major issues. Please tell me you are aware of these issues and already working on a fix, otherwise, I will have no choice but to put a disclaimer on the website to not use FireFox, which would look bad to the client and FireFox.
Please advise as soon as you can.
